If he really did have a friend that died while he lives - then he must realize that it really was her decision and really no one should kill themselves. Everyone deserves - DESERVES to live and to be happy. He shouldn't want to die because life can get better because like seasons change so do things in life. What may seem unchangeable, unbreakable now - with time and perserverance things will heal and change - life can get better. There is always - ALWAYS many reasons to live there never really are reasons to die to take your own life. Your life is worth more than suicide - your life is worth more than he had lived and etc... but at this age he died because... YOUR life is worth more than that. Yes, I am being quite serious.
